The default level is 9.

The number of 1 KB blocks per volume.

Change the defaults for use with a cartridge tape drive, with a density
of 8000 bpi, and a length of 1700 feet.

+Exclude
+.Ar inode
+from the dump (you can use

+Enable the multi-volume feature. The name specified with
+.Fl f
+is treated as a prefix and
+.Nm
+writes in sequence to <prefix>001, <prefix>002 etc. This can be
+useful when dumping to files on an ext2 partition, in order to bypass
+the 2GB file size limitation.

Size estimate. Determine the amount of space
that is needed to perform the dump without
actually doing it, and display the estimated
